Copywriting Conference returns to London

After a smash-hit sell-out year, we’re thrilled to announce that the Copywriting Conference is returning to the Crystal building on 12 October 2018.

We’re sticking with a tested formula, and giving you a blend of talks and breakout sessions. We’re cramming even more into this year’s event, so you now have 5 breakout sessions to choose from (you have to pick 2 from the 5 available).

Learning and development for all commercial writers

The programme is carefully chosen to offer a mix of the practical and the inspirational.

So we have Doug Kessler talking about the power of metaphor, and Anna Gunning talking about interrogating client briefs.

Two UX copywriters from Booking.com, Jade Goldsmith and Francesca Catanuso, are visiting us from Amsterdam to share their insights on conversion optimisation.

And we’re incredibly excited to have Ryan Wallman, known to many as the acerbic Dr Draper on Twitter, flying from Australia to share his thoughts on the damaging impact of marketing jargon.

This is just the start. The Copywriting Conference website has the full programme to browse now – so you know what you’ll be getting in October.

The day is also designed to give you plenty of chances to catch up with familiar faces and expand your circle of copywriting connections. Everything takes place at the Crystal, including all the talks, snacks, lunch, breakout sessions, and the drinks after the main event.
